How To Get A Diagnosis?

If the patient complains about the symptoms of this condition, then, the specialist will recommend image testing to further confirm the condition. X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs are performed to determine the root cause of your condition that is forming more problems. Once the underlying cause is determined, the doctor will be able to start a suitable treatment option.

Treatment Options:

Our clinic offers a wide variety of treatments for your condition. Some of them are:

Antibiotics: If a bacterial infection is a causative agent behind this condition, then, these medicines are prescribed to eliminate the infection by preventing further growth and providing relief.
Anticonvulsants: These are medications used for patients with epilepsy. If the pain is associated with nerve conditions then, this medication is recommended to stabilize the abnormal activity of nerves.
Botox: It temporarily blocks the signals that the nerves send to the muscles. This can alleviate discomfort by relaxing overactive muscles and interrupting the pathway for pain.
Nerve Blockers: These involve blocking the nerves that travel back towards the brain. These nerves are paralyzed, temporarily until the pain subsides.
